Here at Rebecca Ward Design, we use the term “Everyday Luxury” a lot. In fact, the phrase “Designing Everyday Luxury” is one of the first things you see on our website. But what does the term “Everyday Luxury” mean? We acknowledge that it might mean something different to us than it does to you, so let’s talk about it!
To us, “Everyday Luxury” means your home works beautifully for your real life—comfort feels effortless, decisions feel thoughtful, and your space supports you day after day. It’s not that you are living in the height of luxury like the Queen on Sheba; it’s that your life functions easily, your needs are met, and you live comfortably. Living in a well-designed space is a huge part of this. It instantly makes your life more extravagant when your space feels like you, functions well, and stands the test of time.
To some, luxury might conjure up images of fancy cars, expensive clothing, and the best in technology, but we think that it’s the everyday things that make life truly luxurious. Here are a few things (other than a well-designed home) that we think of as everyday luxuries:
- A nicely scented candle with a wood wick
- A fresh bouquet in a favorite vase
- Crisp, clean sheets
- A delicious cup of coffee
- Fast internet
- Time to spend with your loved ones
- A slice of warm artisan bread with salty butter
- Strong water pressure
- A clean, well-organized space
- A warm bubble bath
- Getting takeout from your favorite restaurant
- A good-smelling car
- A slow morning routine
- A fresh manicure
- Soft throw blankets
- Plush bathrobes
- Being able to find your keys the second you need them
